Hôtel Conseil
Hôtel Conseil is a brand created in 2001 by Guilain Denisselle for his consulting activities. Over the years, leveraging his experience, he has specialized in the areas of technology and distribution within the hotel and tourism industries.
A firm believer in the principle that the wheel already exists, there’s no need to reinvent it, Guilain Denisselle delivers pragmatic and adaptable solutions to his clients.
Experience...
The first hotel portal with real-time booking that Guilain Denisselle collaborated with dates back to 1995. Since then, he has worked with, supported, or partnered with numerous companies, including ReservIT, Topsys, Availpro (rebranded as D-Edge in 2019), Worldres, RatesToGo (acquired by Cendant, became Orbitz in 2003, and later purchased by Expedia in 2015), and many more.
He possesses a rare 360° understanding of the hotel industry: from Operations to PMS, CRS, OTA, Business Travel, and Consulting.
Additionally, he has contributed in a modest capacity to several projects and associations, including Hospitality Technology Next Generation (HTNG), where for nearly 14 years he has served as a volunteer representative in Europe. HTNG has played a significant role in modernizing the technological landscape by addressing emerging challenges such as tokenizing customer payment data within the electronic distribution chain.
